It took me a very long time to complete this project… I started by making a victorian corset in white coton, complete with boning in steel (16 pieces), a busc, the back lacing and rows of cotton lace at the top and bottom.I then moved on to the bustle, also in white cotton. The boning casings are trimed with large pleated ruffles, to match the bottom of the petticoat. An inside lacing allows you to adjust the width of the bustle. You can see the corset and bustle here : http://www.alittlemarket.com/lingerie/corset_et_tournure-1397978.html

For the dress, I used a steampunk inspired printed cotton, as well as a mixed wool black fabric, with alternating sripes of shining and mate black.The skirt is composed of an underskirt made out of the cotton fabric and an overskirt of the black wool. The black wool makes an apron at the front, which folds are held with buckles. The back is the bustle part, the side folds are decorated by clock mecanism charms.The back of the jacket tapers at the waist and then fans out on the skirt. The details of the side backs (stripes of fabric held into place by small clock buttons) match the détails of the cuffs. The center front panne lis made of the same cotton as the underskirt, wich also matches the lining og the back « basque », the cuffs, the collar… The fake lapels at the front are decorated with clock mecanism buttons bought from a fellow Etsy artist. The same buttons can be seen at the center back and at the collar. Three rows of chain bearing steampunk charms are attached to the buttons at the colar.Price details:Corset : 250 USDTournure : 210 USDDress (jacket + skirt) : 1050 eurosFrench size 38, US size 6-8One of a kind, this dress cannot be made again.Do not hesitate to contact me to create your own steampunk or victorian dress !
